(Continued) CHAPTER IT, Oxr morning Mr. Agnew appeared dress- ed for a journey, wished Evelyn good-bye, and was goue bc fore she could recoyor from her surprise. She sought her father, but he was from home, and en his return she addressed him anxiously.—'Is My, Agnew coming back, papa?” she asked. “No, my chili,” he replied; ‘it surely can make no diilerence to yeu, for you have searecly spoken to him for the last mouth, “Tt does make a difference,” said Eve- lyn, ‘Sand you ought to have consulted me, for Lean never get on without him, Oh, papa, how could you send dear old Mr. Agnew aay ?—it was crucl. Where ean he go?” “ Never mind, love,” said her father, “Til take care of him. You niust prepare for the new tutor to-morrow. «Lam so sorry.” said Evelyn, ‘* I don't want anew tutor, I like dear old) Mr. Agnew. I shall not like the new tutor; I know L shall hate him.” «There is no eceasion for you to like him, dear,” said the squire.‘ You must keep all your love for Stanhope Gorddn You know you promised me, my little Evelyn.” ‘The old squire held up her pouting face between his hands and kissed it; but Eye- lyn was far [vom satisfied, She colored at the name of Stanhope Gordon, ske dread: ed it—in fact, she hated it. And her nurse told her too she was quite sure her fortune was his object, and she firmly believed it, “know IT shall hate the new tutor, Poor old Mr, Agnew! I shall never like avother many and [detest Stanhope Gov. don. Nothing shall ever induce me to marry him—horrid, mereenary creature 1? These were Evelyn's thoughts that night ere she slept. ‘The new tutor had_ arrived, Evelyn knew it, but she was determined not ‘to mike her appearance uatil dinner time,so hurt did she feel at the treatment of her old friend. She searcely looked up when her father presented the stranger @o her, But the new tutor was no quiet, pliinty- attired, elderly gentleman ; he was a hand- some, tall, well-dressed young man, and yery soon our heroine was obliged to ac- knowledge this, — Ie took his place at the dinner-table, and commenced with that ease Which announced a habiiue of good society. ‘s Eyelyn rose to leave the room the I tutor rose also and Uae the door tor rs it was then for the first time she look- him, aud could not help being favor- Jmation which soon took place in By ably impressed. Her father seemed also prepossessed in his favor, and they chatted tugether as men who were not new Ac- quaintances, Never had she heard him conyerse so brilliantly. She had no idea heknewse much, ‘The young tutor seem- ed to possess the power of drawing forth the squire’s hidden knowledge. George Merton, Evelyn, and the for- mers young pupil soon beeame excellent | friends. and Mr, Grantly appeared pleased that it should be so, Lfis child was once more happy and cheerful, and a clouc Which had lately settled ou his own brow gradually disappeared, George understood all about flowe birds, and it was wonderiul the tra ralenia and fan New and rare flowers fayovite garden, sprang up, asif by magic, and ay of beautiful singing birds graced the a ary; indeed it was wondertul hoy much attention the little flower garden in the vicinity of the study required, and how many suggestions George Merton found it heeessary to make concerning this plant and that’ and the numerous little ecommis- sions which took the young girl to the study, and the interest sho took in the young pupil's lessons, and her anxiety that he should aequit himself ecreditably ; in-| deed, more than once the young tutor sur- prised her in the study helping his young pupil, New walks were discovered across what Eyelyn had heretofore considered impass- | able fields and pathless woods; frequently she und George made exenrsions wone, and when the young heiress waa tired,she never serupled to tike his proffered arm. The squire on these oceasi young ward for his companion; the boy had become strangely attached to him,and the old wan had learnt to love him as a son. It was already a treat to the latter to be asked to go anywhere with his kind protector, and not a little flattered was he when his simple-hearted guardian deferred to his judgment in some trifling matter! connected with the estate. No happier family than that assembled beneath Syuire Grantly’s roof can well be imagined, Two months thus passed away, when news of Stanhope Gordon’s serions illness arrived, which, of course, for a time post- poned his intended visit. The Squire looked grave and troubled, but the wick Evelyn was glad ia her sceret heart, She and the young tutor were now more fre- quently together than usual. [nv the cool evenings, after a hot summers day, they might be seen wandering slowly through the grounds, particularly where the paths wound through the sweet scented shrtib- g to admire or ping beries; now aud then stoppi some beautiful flower or stately tree perhaps to examine some curious cr plant. Ly this time some things had acquired more than ordinary interest, for they would slop not unfrequently before a grotto, an arbour, or the gnarled root of an old tree; doubtless happy associations were con- nected with them, for G orge Merton would look lovingly down on the young girl who contidingly hung on his aym,and smilingly they would couverse together, Lhe old grotto was apparently their fa- vorite spot, for they more frequently visil- edit than any other place, ruuge to say, the squire never object- » intimacy which had sprang up between his daurhter and heiress anJt his ward's tutor. It may be, simple and in- novent himself, he was slow to suspect wrong or guile in any pe. He and his young ward often surprised then in tl wanderings, but neither party betrayed the slightest embarrassment. Squire Grantly was pleased to. see his child so happy, ly turn down another w out of sight, rub his han gether, and laugh merr teminine eyes were not d Oh, Evels i “that yon should so dem “Tow dare you, nurse! angry rejoinder. “Sure the poor man's gon would be better,” the nurse would say, “Don’t name the wretch to me!
